The Lodge at West River is a charming and clean motel located in a beautiful area of Vermont, just 30 minutes from popular ski resorts like Mt. Snow and Magic Mountain. It is a great choice for families and travelers seeking a comfortable stay near skiing, snowmobiling, and outdoor activities. The lodge offers a mix of old-world charm and modern touches, adding to its cozy atmosphere. Rooms are well-maintained and clean, with some reviews noting the presence of a friendly cat in the lobby and complimentary snacks such as brownies and a simple breakfast bar. Guests appreciate the welcoming and friendly staff, including hosts who are helpful and attentive to guests' needs, including those traveling with dogs. The location is convenient for exploring nearby attractions and enjoying the scenic Vermont countryside. The lodge provides fast Wi-Fi, which is valuable for travelers from out of state, especially given spotty cell phone service in the area. However, some guests mention that the walls and floors are thin, leading to noise issues on certain nights, especially late in the evening. While this is not a common problem, it was noticeable during a stay around the night of an eclipse, with sounds of a party nearby. A suggestion was made for guests to be respectful of quiet hours to improve the experience for everyone. Overall, The Lodge at West River is praised as a friendly, clean, and well-located place to stay, with minor concerns about noise that could be mitigated with guest policies. It is recommended for those looking for a cozy Vermont retreat close to outdoor adventures.
Great place to stay for skiing at Stratton.Had a slight issue at the start of our stay but Kayla was extremely helpful and fixed it right away. Very friendly. Perfect little spot. Seemed like they baked homemade muffins and had a little breakfast bar. Would definitely be back if I am in the area.
